Speaking on Children’s Day, Nestlé Nigeria’s Corporate Communications and Public Affairs Manager, Mrs. Victoria Uwadoka said, “I wish all Nigerian children

a very Happy Children’s Day! This annual event gives us the opportunity to celebrate them and to reflect on how to enhance their health and wellbeing. At Nestlé, we believe that Nigerian children have the potential to demonstrate the

greatness of this country. Attaining the nation of our dreams begins with prioritizing and advancing the development and welfare of children.

We are therefore, delighted to collaborate with our partners to prepare them for the future through the Nestlé for Healthier Kids initiative. We trust that the learning materials we are providing them with today will go a long way towards making their learning

experience more exciting”.

and education.
